Rodions Kurucs starting for Brooklyn Friday; Lance Thomas to bench

Brooklyn Nets forward Rodions Kurucs is in the lineup Friday in the team's game against the Sacramento Kings.

What It Means:

Kurucs played off the bench Wednesday against Boston, but this time around, he'll be in the starting five alongside Jarrett Allen down low. That means Lance Thomas, who has been a staple in the lineup in this NBA restart, will head to the second unit.

Our models currently project Kurucs for 12.9 FanDuel points across 15.8 minutes of action, but that was before this news.
